Abstract
A method for operating a vehicle equipped with a surroundings sensor system is provided. In the method, at least one preceding and/or oncoming two-wheeler is detected at least as a function of data of the surroundings sensor system. In addition, an angle of inclination of the two-wheeler is ascertained at least as a function of data of the surroundings sensor system and a movement path of the two-wheeler is predicted based on the ascertained angle of inclination. The operation of the vehicle takes place in this case based on the predicted movement path.
